IARN — The Iowa Soybean Association held a panel discussion on supply chain issues at the Innovation to Profit Conference on February 17th.
Mike Steenhoek, executive director of the Soy Transportation Coalition, led the panel discussion with soy industry professionals about how transportation, emerging markets, and the supply chain play into the production decisions that Iowa soybean farmers make. Much of the conversation was steered towards the transportation side of things. Steenhoek said it was because “people don’t think about transportation until they hit a pothole- and we’ve had a lot of potholes lately, both figuratively and literally.”
